Looking at getting a puppy.

[Emmav2020]

Recommendations please as we are looking at getting a family dog.

looking at the following:
small
not yappy
doesn't malt
good with kids - we have a 3 year old who is dog obsessed and a teenager.

Please notes, i grew up with Bernese mountains dogs and leonbergers so im used to the bigger breeds but this time im after a small dog.

Thanks

My dream dogs...

We have a miniature schnauzer, small breed but very sturdy, don’t moult, very clever so pick up on training very quickly, incredibly loving.

Make sure you look at what health conditions each breed you are considering are prone too, I would steer clear of flat faced breeds and Cavalier King Charles Spaniels purely from a health perspective, and as you have a little one, probably dachshunds as well.
